Summer Faculty Systems Design Program. Integrating Wind Tunnels and Computers. Volume I. Executive Summary. USAF/OSR/ASEE

Abstract

It was necessary to review the fields of wind tunnel testing and computational fluid dynamics in order to understand better how computers and wind tunnels can be used, independently and interactively, to the benefit of aerodynamic design and testing. In the material in Volume II there is a fair amount of tutorial material that may be omitted if the reader is current in the field. The Study Group has attempted to concentrate on those areas in the timely generation of the design data in which the computer can most probably effect significant improvement.
